I read in an SEO article that a redirect through Alexa helps to increase your Alexa rating. Considering many ad companies use the Alexa rating to determine if your site has enough traffic to be on their network, anyway to increase your Alexa rating will increase your chances of getting on better ad networks which equates to more revenue. Does anyone know if the redirect does work to increase your Alexa rating for those users that don't have the toolbar loaded? Below is an example...

Any ideas would be appreciated......
